Ustica island page, another DX expedition by IK8VRQ and IZ8AVG


Ustica Is - EU051/PA001 - QSL
A dx expedition is in the dreams of any ham and our small dream was to go to Ustica Island (EU051/PA001). Some people helped us to make this dream a reality: our friend Mauro with useful island's info, our friend Felice (IK8WTD) and our friends Salvatore and his XYL Luisa.

They were with us in this beatifull paradise and enjoyed it.

We used a Kenwood TS-50 and a multiband dipole.

73 from IE9/IK8VRQ team: IK8VRQ, Angelo and IZ8AVG, Alfredo.

I would like to thank you Alfredo IZ8AVG for his outstanding support and job during the expedition
